A delicate potion from nature afar, I spend my life trapped away in a jar. When released, your neck feels the touch of my breath. I cling to you, then fade away to my death.

I have a long body, but I do not have legs. I am known for my electric abilities.

Of seven my size is unmatched Stretching from Asia’s coast to Cali’s shore With me many people have swam and splashed The deepest trench is one I bore

While my size is not standard, I’m used as a scale. I grow in the sun, though my flesh is quite pale Don’t open my hint, I’ll freely unlock it Are you happy to see me, or am I in your pocket?

I am a twin who cannot speak, born when light and darkness meet. Artists capture my essence in black, revealing truth through what I lack.
